If you want to add a film to Boobpedia, you should consider not only to create an article, but to fully integrate the film into the Boobpedia system. This can be done by creating a template which contains all the relevant data on your film.
The advantage of creating a template: Films can appear at different occasions on Boobpedia:
- They can be mentioned in the flow of an article text, for instance Supervixens (Russ Meyer, 1975).
- They can be listed in a filmography.
- They can have their own article with a complex infobox at the right top of the page.
If you find that some given information on your film was inorrect or if you find new data, you would have to search the whole Boobpedia site for pages where your film is listed or mentioned - a procedure that means a lot of work and is highly error-prone. If templates are used, it is sufficient to change the data in the template, and all Boobpedia pages will display the changes.
The procedure is simple: You just have to
- create the template,
- create your article.
There are predefined "half-ready" pages that help you. You can use the buttons below to go through the steps and follow the instructions given on the respective new pages.
Template
This special template is a "data container" for your photographer. Editors can insert the name of your photographer in an article by using the {{Photographer}} template which gets the data directly from the template you are creating now. Your template will also be used as a source for your photographer's categories. If you need to change the photographer's data later (e. g. if he/she has a new home page), change this template. Please note that changing any data in the photographer's article will not affect your template. You have to apply changes in both.
- Use the input box below to create a new template for your photographer.
- Note: Do not delete the "Template:" prefix in the input box!
- Follow the instructions given on the new page and return to this page when you are done.
- Follow the next step.
Article
This is the main page for the photographer. It contains the biobox and everything you want to write about him.
- Use the input box below to create a new article for your photographer.
- This creates a predefined photographer article. Follow the instructions and comments given on the new page and return to this page when you are done. You can add text and details later.
- Follow the next two steps.
